Our feed is Verified Non-GMO—a promise of purity. No genetically modified organisms, just natural grains.
This gives you a powerful marketing advantage: sell your eggs as "from hens fed a 100% non-GMO diet," a claim that resonates with health-conscious customers.
We've moved beyond soy with an innovative protein blend of non-GMO field peas and sunflower meal.
This provides a complete amino acid profile without the concerns associated with soy, making it perfect for customers with sensitivities.
This isn't just an expense—it's an investment in your flock's productivity.
Many commercial feeds use conventionally-grown grains that contain glyphosate residues. These chemicals don't just affect your livestock—they accumulate in eggs and meat, impact soil health, and harm beneficial insects and microorganisms.
Traditional feeds often use "least-cost formulation," meaning ingredients can change based on commodity prices. You might not know exactly what you're feeding your flock from one bag to the next.
The heavy reliance on GMO corn and soy supports industrial monoculture farming, which depletes soil, reduces biodiversity, and requires intensive chemical inputs.
